Description: Chicago Mob Boss Sam Giancana 1960's Legal Documents from Mob Attorney and Judge Listed for sale are two attorney files originally belonging to Chicago lawyer Daniel A. Covelli. Among the papers found in the files are legal copies of court papers related to Sam Giancana. No pages are signed by either Giancana or Covelli. Also included is an interesting handwritten letter from a Cook County Jail inmate who writes about the Federal Reserve and lawful vs unlawful money. Seeing as this was in Giancana's file it must have related to him in some way. Covelli’s association with the mob has been confirmed by FBI documents. An FBI memo of July 29, 1964 from FBI Assistant Director Courtney A. Evans, who was liaison to Attorney General Robert F. Kennedy, wrote: According to an informant Samuel Giancana, leader of the Chicago underworld, is now adding his support to previously reported efforts of the underworld to promote Judge Covelli of the Cook County Circuit Court to a Federal judgeship. We had information earlier in our Criminal Intelligence Program of the close connection between Judge Covelli and the underworld and its desire to place him on the Federal bench. Recently, in this regard an informant of our Chicago Office advised that Giancana issued orders to all politicians and public officials under his influence to work together in order to assure that Judge Covelli gets the next Federal judgeship coming open in the Chicago area. We informed the Department in 1961 and 1963 of Covelli’s background and of the hoodlums’ interest in him and it is recommended that we also advise the Department as to the information we now have that the top ranking hoodlum of the Chicago underworld is actively promoting Covelli for Federal Judge.
